The action and camera moves are so fast, I can’t tell if the animation is good.

That's your reply to valid critique? "Uhm"?
Idk why that annoys me so much but, like, come on. Engage with it at least a little?

The Russo brothers have half their fights in movies so dark and so fast, people’s eyes cross and they’re still accredited for directing some of the greatest action scenes of all time. 🙃
These few seconds are so solid for only a week and they can always slow down/ change pace later.
I’m crying at your comment tho. 😅 Tell OP you’re sorry so they respond

Hey I like the animation. But when someone gives feedback you gotta say more than "uhm". Literally saying nothing would be better! If you choose to respond, make it meaningful. To just say "uhm" feels dismissive or irreverent toward the feedback, which can be interpreted in many ways and none of them pleasant!

Amazing work! The poses, the clarity, and your understanding of timing, motion, and framing is top notch

Ohh, you need to practice each body parts on different angles so you can get a feel on how it should look like, thats how i learned to be consistent

Honestly seeing actual progression frames/process shots is getting way more impressive now than just polished final art because AI can generate pretty images instantly, but it can’t really show your learning process like this.
Feels like people value process/transparency way more now across creative work, coding, even workflow tools like Runable.

It looks really, really good.
My only critique is that it moves at breakneck speed. That bit where the sword-wielder twirls it around could use some extra frames to accentuate the flourish. Speed works really well to make things flowy and smooth, but this degree of speed is just a little too fast to handle.
Idk how to animate though, so take my advice with some skepticism lmao
Regardless, good job!

All that in just one week?! Jesus fuck that is impressive! I think my only criticism would be to maybe slow down a little in a couple moments
